Access to starting point:
From highway Ljubljana - Maribor, we go to the exit Celje - center and we continue driving in the direction Laško and Zidani Most. The road leads us through the center of Celje, and then before Savinja brings us to a roundabout with a fountain. Here we continue "straight" over the first bridge (direction Laško and Zidani Most) and we follow the road to the next traffic light crossroad, where we continue left over the second bridge over Savinja. Immediately behind the bridge at the crossroad we continue right. After approx 500 meters we get to the underpass under the railway track (on the right side there is a large parking lot and the starting point in Zagrad), we go through it and we continue straight past the fire station in Zagrad. We follow the road through the village, and higher in Zvodno it brings us to a smaller crossroad at the bus stop, where we notice signposts for Grmada right, Hudičev graben straight, parking lot 1.2 km straight. We continue straight towards the new parking lot (2020), and the road gradually flattens and narrows. New parking lot - our starting point is located just by the road before the fish farm. Here we can park and we go on the trip on paths, which lead or via Bojanski graben, or via Marija, or via Hudičev graben, or via Suhi potok. To the starting point, we can also come from Dolenjska and Zasavje. In this case, we at first drive to Rimske Toplice and then through Laško to the above described second bridge, from where we continue in accordance with the description.
Path description:
From the starting point signposts for Hudičev graben at first point us on the road past the supporting wall back towards Celje, and already after few steps sharply to the left on a cart track which leads into the forest. We follow the cart track about 100 meters to the crossing just before Hudičev graben, where we leave the path into the gorge of the stream Hudičev potok and we continue to the left towards Pečovje or Marija or Bojanski graben. We follow a marked forest path all to the way to the next crossing at the edge of the forest, where to the right we join Celje mountain trail (CPP) on the forest road which is coming from the direction Celje. Already after about 100 meters we get to another crossing, where we leave the forest road and we continue to the left downwards on a cart track in the direction of Štore or Bojanski graben. When we descend all the way to Bojanski graben, at the crossing we continue sharply to the right along the stream Bojanski potok. We follow the marked path in a narrow gorge by the stream, but only to the next crossing, where the path branches off to the left. We follow the blazes, we leave the gorge of the stream Bojanski potok and we continue in a steeper ascent. Soon after we get out of the forest, we to the left join the forest road which on a gentle slope leads to Zaroviše. After few steps, we reach the saddle on the south side of Veliki and Mali Bojanski vrh, where from the left joins the path from Žlajfa. We continue sharply right on asphalt, through a short section in the forest and through a yard of a homestead between the tower silo, the house and the stable. Next follows continuation through a meadow part, by the distinct tree and a cross and again through the forest part. Soon on the ridge we reach a crossing between the mountain hut Vrunčev dom on the left and mountain hut Dom na Svetini on the right. We continue to the right and after a little less than ten minutes of walking on the ridge we reach Almin dom, or Planinski dom on Svetina, from where a breathtaking view opens up on the south side on beautiful village Svetina and surrounding hills. Just above the hut there is the peak with name Ramanca (781 meters), and from the nearby there is a nice view also towards the north.
